    I’ve been using and loving MyCurator for awhile now at https://dopensacola.com but after the last WordPress update to 5.5.1 I am no longer able to click “Make Live” without getting a 404 Page Not Found error. I’ve tried removing all unused plugins and themes but that hasn’t helped. Any ideas?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Usually this happens because your host has tightened security on your site and is blocking the plugin .PHP file from starting up the WordPress Admin. As shown in the link, MyCurator is starting up a plugin file (MyCurator_train.php) that then starts up the WordPress admin to do a regular WordPress Post.

    It could be that your host just happened to update their security right around your update to 5.5.1. It could also be that you are using a security plugin that updated with 5.5.1 that has tightened security or changed the .htaccess file. You could try deactivating any security plugins and see if that helps. You can also send this response to your host and see if they can help.

    Finally, it could be that the MyCurator_train.php file is missing. Check that and if so, try deleting MyCurator then reinstalling. You won’t lose any data as you do this.

    There are no security plugins and the MyCurator_train.php file does exist. This is the error I’m getting in the debug log:

    PHP Notice: Undefined index: excerpt in /public_html/wp-content/plugins/mycurator/MyCurator_fcns.php on line 702
    PHP Notice: Undefined index: note in /public_html/wp-content/plugins/mycurator/MyCurator_fcns.php on line 704

    Have you used the Quick tag on MyCurator to post a training page article quickly? That is where those notices (they are not errors) come from.

    Do the Get It or Source It bookmarklets work? They will usually also get an error if the Make Live gets an error. Maybe you can try them and see if they produce an error message?
